I run GEOS Ensemble v2.01 from Windows 95 all of the time. What 
happens when you try to run GEOS from DOS7? Maybe this might help...

 GW Steve: Ready for the trivia question?
 GW Steve: If you're using Win95 or PC DOS 7, with Ensemble
           2.0, what can you do *instead* of loading and
           using SETVER?
 GW Steve: add this line to the [system] section of GEOS.INI
           "fs = ms4.geo"
  Only try this with the above OS's. It won't work with DR-
DOS (or Novell, I think... maybe not even some MS-DOS's...
I don't remember all of the caveats besides only using it
with those two OS's).
  The nice thing is if you are only loading SETVER.EXE to
use Geoworks, you no longer need to load it with this fix.
Might free up some conventional memory for some folks.
